COMPUTERS

The first true computer was the ENIAC. It was very big and each machine had its own room. They used lots of power (enough to light a small town!), and often broke down. They couldn't hold much information - they could only work on one problem at a time. Computers are much better now!



  • Answer the questions:

1. What's the name of the first computer?
2. Was it big?
3. What was it like?
4. What are computers like today?
